Victory Takes White Sox to 10-5
The Chicago A (AZL) White Sox earned a close win over the Oakland (AZL) Athletics, thanks in part to Matt Rice. The Chicago A (AZL) right-hander played a key role in the 3-1 victory. Antonio Diaz closed the door for Chicago A (AZL), picking up his 1st save of the year. The White Sox raised their record to 10-5.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Kyle Urban? The Chicago A (AZL) second baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the White Sox on top, 2-0. For the game, Urban had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Matt just went about his business, throwing strikes," said Chicago A (AZL) manager Noel Clodfelter.
